Told you bedding in will make you sick

 

[james.l]

hmmmmmm, to buy or not to buy. That is the question.

 

[sambryant]

Not to buy
Look up poor boys detailing products. By far the best products i have used

 

[james.l]

everyone has their own preferences with detailing products, i myself prefer sonus polishes but I know others that love megs stuff, others that like autoglum.

Not 100% sure on the £45 wax tho...ouch!

It defs needs a weekends worth of detailing before long to get it ready for show season

 

[ReDBull]

My favourite why of cleaning my car is to pay the Polish chaps £5.

rather you than me, i used to do this, then the detailing bug got hold of me.

 

[ReDBull]

That's why I avoid cleaning it my self it becomes obsessive!

Last set i fitted during lunch break at bedford track day! Ran up and down the pit lane braking as hard as pos and then after lunch just went out and gave it the beans as usual

Worked fine and bearing in mind these are race pads and so are made such that if needs must you can simply fit them and get on with it

Think I will go for a set of DS3000's.... Just waiting on a few prices.

 

[sambryant]

Bill is cheapest place for 3000s

 

[t0m]

Make sure you try Camskill. They were the cheapest place for me when I sorted my front brakes last year.

 

[james.l]

Downloaded the first copy of performance seat today, looks jam packed with stuff @ 84 pages long far too much to read in 1 sitting but first impressions... it looks good.

Edit : Plus @ £1 it's cheap! Can't even buy a bottle of fizz for a quid these days.

 

[t0m]

It's a decent effort considering it's the first mag.

Ideas for the 2nd one look promising. I'm just hoping we don't get a major price hike to £2 anytime soon! Lol.

D.K has contacted them about covering the AmD RR day.

 

[james.l]

DS3000's from camskill..... £275! OUCH!

Might stick with the yellow's for a while. Didn't realise they would be that expensive...

 

[t0m]

What other prices have you got so far?

 

[james.l]

That's it so far.

 

[Murdered LCR]

£250 for ds2500s for mine so that price is pretty good tbh , can't believe you're moaning at the price tho how much have you spent on the car £10k plus on the engine alone something that makes you stop shouldn't be skimped on they will be so much better than ebc its untrue

I totally understand your comments, it's just £275 for a set of pads always sounds like a lot of money to me, although I suppose it's like an insurance policy protecting what I have spent on the car...

 

[t0m]

Get that wallet open mate

 

[Murdered LCR]

It is alot of money but tyres and brakes shouldn't be skimped on yellow stuff would probably be fine for a stage two Lcr etc but some thing as mad and quick as yours needs some thing that will make you stop just as well as it goes Ds3000 then track abuse the car
